   Though this is my favorite place for me and my partner to eat, we had booked a table for two for our anniversary dinner and were waiting 30 minutes to be seated. Now, I understand Saturdays are busy, however, when I take the time to book a table online for a special occasion I would like to be seated at the time of my reservation.

   Disappointed with the wings that brought us to E and C in the first place . There was very little of their usual sauce on them and appeared to be bulked out with celery sticks placed underneath the wings 😳😳 I had a salad which was overpriced-12.45€ for a plate of spinach leaves, half avocado and few halves of cherry tomatoes and to add insult to injury five pieces of chicken added for over 5€ for the add on - leave you to do the maths !! Disappointing visit Would not recommend from this recent experience

   The staff is amazing, very attentious and really fast with the order. The spicy chicken wings are really the best of Dublin, it is perfect! I will return for sure.

   Very disappointing visit to Elephant and Castle. I understand it may have been a busy service but we arrived 15 minutes early for our table and we were well within our 1hr30min stay. Staff attempted to clear my friends plate twice whilst clearly still eating. Clearly really poorly trained. I will not be returning.

    We were rushed out of there the moment we were finished eating. Won’t be coming back.

    Elephant & Castle - Temple BarResponded on 10 January 2023Thank you Sean for taking time to write a review. Usually, when guests finish eating and drinking they are served their bill as every table is booked until closing time. Hope you understand. Kind regards D.K

    Myself, wife and two Kids 10 and 13 ate at this restaurant on the 3rd of Jan 2022. Positives: Good location, decent table Tasty quality food. Negatives: Gap between start let and main was too long, over 30mins. My wife and daughters meals arrived, leaving my son and I to wait an additional 10-15mins. Near the end of the meal my son and I went to the bathroom, my son slipped on a grease floor and took a spill significant enough to cause a nose bleed. I reported this to to members of staff and felt their response was dismissive, they offered tissues and nothing more. Dismissing the slip cause as a wet floor, due to want being dragged in on shoes. I explained and demonstrated that the floor was not wet but was infact grease. As a family we felt, the response to my clearly injured child was far below expectations and ruined our experience.

    The menu wasn’t as expected or as we were told earlier in the day, it was limited to Christmas. The food was mediocre at best and the dirty fries were very disappointing. The staff were pleasant and attentive but the food let it down.

    Our server was lovely although I felt like we were being a bit rushed to get through the courses. The wings were delicious as usual however we ordered two burgers which were overcooked, it might be a good idea to ask how diners like them cooked in future. Despite that it’s still worth a visit
